MotoWeatherman Posted December 1, 2010 Share Posted December 1, 2010 think I'm going to call it a night, and a month. Good riddance to November (and met. Fall) . Holes are already showing up in north Ga, and the heavy echoes are vanishing rapidly, plus the overall width of the line is shrinking pretty rapidly . I was afraid that once the momentum gathers east of the mountains, the line would break up some and speed up. Even though the actual severe squall line is getting better organized, the rain part (part i need) is going to do the vanishing act yet again. Don't think I had even 3" for the entire three month period. Unbelievable. That is unreal. What looked like a below normal November for me turned out above normal with the dump from the last two days. Sitting at 55.11" for the year. Need a wet December of 6+" to reach normal. 8.11 inches for this event so far. Your in the perfect trajectory for enhanced upslope for rain moving south to north.

John1122 Posted December 1, 2010 Share Posted December 1, 2010 Ended up with 3.28 inches of rain imby. Sharp cut off to the precip, cold air is invading quickly but not quite quickly enough by the look of things. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MotoWeatherman Posted December 1, 2010 Share Posted December 1, 2010 That seems awfully high............... Never underestimate the power of upslope with the perfect trajectory from the south for a location like Lake Toxaway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sitting at 55.11" for the year. Need a wet December of 6+" to reach normal. Yeah, you and most of Georgia has had a banner few years for sure. 31.5" here, even less just to my southwest a few miles. Go back and look at 05, 06, 07, 08, and this year (09 was avg here) on the est. charts. The below area never left my neighborhood, literally except in 09. Guess I'm the world's biggest sinner or something. There's just literally nothing going on here usually, amazing the ways I get missed, sideswiped, and split, just seemingly forever now. Atleast the gap is closing in and getting smaller, but my house is literally the epicenter of this quake. I feel your pain thanks I know you're even worse shape this year, officially. Central SC has had a pretty bad drought this year, but cheer up, you'll pull out of it by Spring when the Nina fades. Not so here I'm afraid.

Itunis Posted December 1, 2010 Share Posted December 1, 2010 That is unreal. What looked like a below normal November for me turned out above normal with the dump from the last two days. Sitting at 55.11" for the year. Need a wet December of 6+" to reach normal. Your in the perfect trajectory for enhanced upslope for rain moving south to north. Just over 50" for the year according to the UGA weather station located in Alpharetta. Normal is 52-54" I think so we're on target to hit that.

FoothillsNC Posted December 1, 2010 Author Share Posted December 1, 2010 Just over 50" for the year according to the UGA weather station located in Alpharetta. Normal is 52-54" I think so we're on target to hit that. yeah you folks in GA will probably hit your normals this year, if not above. Already some areas are above for the year closer to the NC border. Sure there will be another high amplitude flow that aims the Gulf right at you guys once more in December sometime. The Carolinas on the other hand aren't doing too good on the year. Eastern NC had the big Trop. Storm 20" which saved them, and the southwest mountains have been getting some good ones, but the northern mtns are below their norms, and again central NC, And from my area due south to central SC.

Here we go again with Cleveland county and the tornadic weather. Man, I would really hate to be anyone living there hearing this after the tornadoes from last time. However, the line is looking rather healthy, and a couple of local mets here warned us of the instability east of the Apps. Hopefully nothing goes too horribly wrong when the line pushes through. .

ncjoaquin Posted December 1, 2010 Share Posted December 1, 2010 8.11 inches for this event so far. I'm not surprised. You are in a money location for this one. To lend credence to your reading, here is a NWS Lake Toxaway real data printout. Lower than you, but a different location could easily be 2 inches different. Any flooding close by?

phil882 Posted December 1, 2010 Share Posted December 1, 2010 Up to 2.19" at UNCA...not nearly as much as most other places, but not bad for being in the rain shadow. Looks like things will begin to taper up in the next few hours. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dsaur Posted December 1, 2010 Share Posted December 1, 2010 Still raining pretty good here, but I'm near the back edge now. I've had 2 1/4 for the system. Vapor loop shows a little something above Ark. I guess that is what is spinning up the flurry talk. We'll see it if gets cold enough before morning.

dwagner88 Posted December 1, 2010 Share Posted December 1, 2010 Wound up with 3.70 total. I thought I'd crack 4 inches based on radar earlier, but the whole thing kinda accelerated on outta here. 36.3 degrees now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
